Repairing versus replacing in Lytham St Anne's

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Bath re-enamelling in Lytham St Anne's without replacing anything

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a coating lifting around the plughole and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Lytham St Anne's

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, normally first under the taps and around the waste.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Landlord and trade work in Lytham St Anne's

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Lytham St Anne's, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
